Question

Write and solve an equation based off the verbal phrase: 6 more than x is equal to 33

Answer 1

x + 6 = 33

Explanation:

6 more than x means there's an increment in the value of x by addition of 6

x + 6 = 33

This leads to an algebraic linear equation. x is an unknown variable and can be solved for

we subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

x + 6 - 6 = 33 - 6

x = 27

Therefore, we can say 6 more than 27 is 33
